    Oil change intervals

    For the first 50K miles on my '98 Dodge, I changed the oil every 6K miles. At 50K, I switched to Amsoil and installed a dual remote bypass filter unit. Since then, I've been changing the full flow filter every 10K miles or so, and the bypass filter every 25K miles or so, and add a quart of...

    lubrication engineers lube

    Then it wouldn't be synthetic, would it? I think whoever said it is full of it. Dino lubes use dino oil as the carrier for the additives. Semi-synthetics use a mix of synth and dino as the carrier (base stock).

    winter oil weight

    I couldn't recommend it because I don't know how 5W40's viscosity behaves in the intermediate temps. That is, if your engine requires 15W40, that oil has been selected to provide ... a specific voscosity across the 'normal' temp range. Consider: at full operating temp, 15W40 part of the oil has...

    winter oil weight

    I've started my '98 12V at -15 without it being plugged in. Amsoil definitely helps starting. Also, the Amsoil remains more 'liquid' at very low temps.
